Miles for throw away segment ticket on a through flight
Does anyone have experience with throw away segment on a through flight?
MSY-SFO-LAX on a through flight. I intend to fly only MSY-SFO. Would I still get miles for MSY-SFO? MSY-SFO is actually longer than MSY-LAX. There's a change of aircraft, but I believe UA probably issues one coupon for the through flight.
